Your Daily Life

The Toulouse Champollion site brings together activities in satellite systems engineering, payload design and development, and ground segment development and qualification. It also includes a research center and an industrial accelerator for start-ups and ventures, as well as activities related to very low-temperature science, with the development and production of microcoolers for demanding markets.

As part of the European GALILEO program, a satellite navigation system (GNSS), Thales Alenia Space develops and operates key elements of the ground segment, including the Key Management Facilities (KMF).

The KMF is an on-premise IaaS / CaaS oriented platform that hosts numerous critical applications for the Galileo program. You will join a team of about 20 people, working on the first generation of the Galileo ground segment, for which Thales Alenia Space is the prime contractor.

In an Agile / SAFe environment, you will contribute to the implementation of cybersecurity solutions on a strategic and classified project requiring European Union clearance.
